Philco Made Garbage Cans!!!!

A good place to put used chewing gum and beer cans - yes?

The smaller bottle says "Edison Battery Oil". I always thought that oil in your electrolyte was bad. Guess I'll have to start lubing my batteries.

Oil in batteries was NOT in electrolyte - it was poured on TOP the electorlyte to prevent the evaporation.

That isn't a garbage can, it's the glass case for a Philco battery. But I think you know that already, and are just kidding, right? ...right? Icon_wink
